This was the first ti they’ve seen anything like it.
The obelisk seed like it was made of alien technology that was advanced and also magical!
Lyle pushed up his glasses and gulped at the sight.
"So kind of arcane power source? No... no, this is beyond anything I’ve seen. It’s definitely not from a Survivor Store. They probably unearth so kind of secret treasure." He muttered. However, the truth was simple. It was just an item that Shane bought at the auction.
However, the shock didn’t end there.
They finally realized that just behind the great gates of the Eclipse Domain, huge figures stood motionless. As the group moved closer, the full sight of them stunned everyone.
Four ch Fras.
The siblings clutched each other’s arms. Even Lyle, usually collected, couldn’t contain his awe.
"ch Fras..." he breathed. "We’ve only heard about them in rumors. And here they are—four of them! Right in front of us!"
"Whoa~"
"You’re right... They’re here..."
"I wonder if I can apply as a pilot. I’ve played a lot of simulation gas like that before."
"That looks aweso. Even a Giant Zombie would not last a minute on that."
What they saw was towering humanoid machines of steel, each easily six to eight ters tall, with weapons grafted to their arms and bodies, standing by.
They weren’t moving, but their sheer presence was overwhelming.
At this ti, the artisans and alchemists truly felt the weight of Shane’s shelter’s power...
"This sight is incredible..."
The eight survivors stood rooted to the ground as their eyes locked on the ch Fras.
Just then, a squad of Warden Units broke formation and approached them. Unlike the patrolling units, these carried long halberds with glowing etchings on the blades.
With those glowing weapons, they imdiately knew that they were all at least Master-Grade Weapons.
One of them raised its weapon slightly, then lowered it. It seed like a gesture of acknowledgnt.
Nonetheless, a human officer followed behind them with a clipboard in hand.
"Floating Fortress occupants? You’ve been approved for imdiate transfer."
"Transfer?" Iona repeated.
"Yes... To the Floating Fortress," the officer clarified. "You’ll undergo secondary screening inside. Follow the escort."
They thought that they could only board the Floating Fortress on the day of the event. However, it seed that Shane had no plans to wait for the 3 days at all.
The eight exchanged quick glances, as they all felt excited about this.
They were led across the southern square, where the towering stone obelisk could be seen clearly.
"Hmmm?" Liona and the others also noticed that passing residents bowed their heads as they walked past, as if acknowledging its significance.
’Is it so kind of a deity they’re worshiping here or sothing?’ This was their initial thought.
Nonetheless, they didn’t think too much of it since they finally realized that a few people were looking at the sky...
They imdiately followed their gazes and soon, they realized that the hovering above the Eclipse Domain was the Floating Fortress!
They didn’t notice this a while ago!
"Whoa~ Is it so kind of stealth mode? How co we only noticed it now?"
"That’s obvious. There’s no way it doesn’t have any form of defensive tricks."
"I wonder how we’re going to board that? Is there a hot air balloon here or sothing?"
They couldn’t help but imagine how they could board the fortress...
Still, the others stayed silent since the sight of it sent shivers racing through their spines. They even noticed nurous turrets at the bottom of the fortress. It was truly like a moving citadel suspended in the sky.
They weren’t even sure if it was working with so sort of anti-gravity thrusters or alien technology, but they all hoped they could also obtain sothing like this.
Then, as they looked around to see if they would drop a robe so they could climb up, the escort led them to an elevator platform that had already descended a while ago. It was a circular stage made of black stone and steel, and could carry five heavy trucks at the sa ti.
This platform was also surrounded by Warden Units, ensuring that it was protected and would not be tampered with by anyone.
"Step onto the platform, please. You will be lifted in just a few monts."
The survivors hesitated only a mont before complying.
Soon, they felt their bodies being lifted as the platform floated swiftly and arrived at the deck of the Floating Fortress.
Inside, the first thing they saw wasn’t machines, but... an Elf.
Tall, elegant, with beautiful silver hair!
The figure wore an elven robe that was also filled with Mana.
His pointed ears marked him as sothing that shouldn’t even exist in this Zombie Apocalypse World!
"Welco to the Fortress..." the Elf said with a lodic voice...
"I am Eltharion, your guide. Please, follow ."
The eight froze.
"An... Elf?" Lyle stamred, his voice cracking. "That... shouldn’t even be possible. This isn’t a fantasy ga world."
"Then how do you explain him standing there in front of us?" one of the siblings muttered as he couldn’t understand how this had happened.
However, they didn’t dare ask further questions. They weren’t in a position where they could just interrogate the elf. Furthermore, with a Floating Fortress and other absurd Talents of Survivors, it seed that soone managed to get an Elf Talent.
"I wonder if the Elf Talent is an Epic Grade or maybe a Legendary Grade. I heard that soone with Werewolf Talent was at Exceptional Grade."
"Well... I also heard that a Half-Beast Talent was at Master Grade..."
"Interesting... This must be one of Shane’s secrets."
They could only guess for now as they soon followed Elf Eltharion...
Soon, the elf led them down wide corridors and realized just how incredible it was.
***
Of course, it didn’t take that long before the other lucky Survivors started arriving.
Just hours later, the group of six from the Grace Crafting Clan finally arrived!
